Filipe: Thanks for the information. If I do: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max on each of my servers, they all report 65536 which seems like a pretty high limit. If I do: cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_count on each of my servers, the highest number is just over 1100. If this is the source of the problem, how would restarting httpd and tomcat help? I did not restart the machine nor reset iptables. I am not asking this to be argumentative, just trying to understand how the facts I am seeing are related.
